Personal Interest: Test and evaluation of foreign aircraft by the US Air Force was unacknowledged in my youth. However, I was very interested in the aggressor mission. The dissimilar air combat mission became increasingly interesting to me as I learned more about it throughout my career.

Model Specifications: This model represents a former Syrian MiG-17F operated by the USAF (White 055).

Secondary Interest:
Vietnam War: North Vietnam received the MiG-17F from the Soviet Union starting in 1964. By the end of the war, the MiG-17 scored 71 aerial victories and 63 were lost in combat.
